Moving to Canada - teach me about cold weather

[Eurodriver]

I applied for and was accepted at one of our subsidiaries in Vancouver. I will have to drive between Van City and Kelowna all year even in winter.

What do you guys do who live in the deep cold north do for emergency prep in your vehicle and home? Not too worried about Vancouver proper (although that’s a separate issue being urban as hell $650k Condo 550sq ft wtf) as temps never get below -5*C or so.

Really worried about Kelowna.

This isn’t like “I’m camping in the woods in January in Canada” thread. It’s how to stay safe if I’m stranded at night on the road or while staying at a hotel there’s a damaging winter storm.
